Sherry Knowles, a well-known patent attorney who has been named one of the top 10 most influential people in intellectual property, recently published an article in The John Marshall Intellectual Property Law Review.
The article, which was co-authored by registered patent agent Dr. Anthony Prosser, focused on whether the U.S. Supreme Court’s patent-eligibility test is constitutional. Knowles and Prosser argued that the test is unconstitutional because there is no support anywhere in the Patent Act or Constitution for the Supreme Court to add layers to the patent eligibility inquiry beyond those specifically and literally defined by Congress.
